I recently accepted an internal transfer at my current company, which I was really excited about. I informed my boss right away, as per HR's request, so that my current and new managers could discuss my start date. I proposed August 3rd, which my new manager was on board with, but my current manager pushed back and set my start date for August 24th instead. This means I have to wait 6 and a half weeks, which is frustrating because it delays my pay increase and keeps me in my current role with unconventional hours that have negatively impacted my mental health. I was also hoping to have some time off to visit my newborn niece who is arriving soon. I'm feeling stressed about this situation and wondering if I have any options to negotiate an earlier start date, especially since I suspect my manager is delaying it to cover for a coworker going on vacation.
